This Christmas, fly high with Aladdin on a magical adventure right here in Hammersmith!
Your wishes have been granted—Aladdin is soaring into the Lyric this festive season. Buckle up for a whirlwind ride above the streets of Hammersmith as Aladdin and Jasmine embark on a hilarious, high-flying adventure packed with magic, mayhem, and mischief.
Meet Aladdin. The local cheeky chancer, hustling his way through life while “helping” (read: barely lifting a finger) at his mum’s busy Wishy Washy Launderette in Shepherd’s Bush Market.
Enter Jasmine. The bold, sharp-witted orphaned princess, who’s bored with life and ready to break free. When she crosses paths with Aladdin, sparks fly. But with his meddling mother Widow Twerkey, her evil step-father Abanazaar and now a Genie in tow, can the course of true love run smooth? Of course not, it’s panto!
Written by Sonia Jalaly and directed by Nicholai La Barrie, reuniting the team behind the critically-acclaimed Jack and the Beanstalk from 2022, expect everything from dance battles to live music to jaw-dropping magic, all the festive fun you could wish for.
So, grab your magic carpet and get ready for the adventure of the year.
